First Impressions
Lamiable Eclat d'Etoiles Rose Grand Cru NV Extra Brut arrives at £47.50, and at this price, it needs to offer genuine quality to stand out in a crowded market. 75cl / 12.5% - A blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes from the Valle de la Marne, this Extra Brut Champagne works brilliantly with food, and can cope with everything from.
France's winemaking heritage needs no introduction, but the best producers continue to find new ways to express their terroir while honouring centuries of tradition. Lamiable is a name worth knowing in this context.
On the Nose and Palate
The nose offers elegant bouquet of green apple, pear, and toasted hazelnut with a whisper of honeycomb. Moving to the palate, the wine is crisp and elegant with fine bubbles carrying flavours of citrus, brioche, and white almond. The finish is lingering and refined, with a final note of almond, citrus, and a dry mineral finish.
Food Pairing and Serving
Equally at home as an aperitif or alongside seafood, sushi, or delicate canapés. Serve at 8-10°C in proper flutes or, better yet, white wine glasses to appreciate the full bouquet.

At £47.50, this represents excellent value for money. Whether you are building a cellar or simply looking for something excellent to drink tonight, this bottle earns its place.
